cha-winter 2013 sneak peek… core’dinations

hi bloggers. well today is the final sneak peek for the cha-winter show releases. thanks to all of you for sharing in the excitement and anticipation of seeing all of the new products coming your way. also thanks so much for posting your comments each day, i appreciate hearing from you and makes blogging that much more fun for me. as a crafter, having different surfaces to work on makes creating projects that much more versatile. when i launched my kraft-core paper with core’dinations i knew this would be one of those go-to surfaces for me especially since it’s kraft-core paper with printed color. last year we also introduced the seasonal impressions kraft-core that has pre-embossed text and imagery for crafting for every season. so today i want to introduce the latest in the kraft-core line-up, the shattered collection. this paper is sold in 12×12 paper pads as well as open stock sheets and ships next month in february…

the new shattered is a paper concept we’ve worked on for the past year, and i have to say i am so happy how it turned out. in fact i even did a little video introducing you to what shattered is all about – check out it…

good news! both the original kraft-core nostalgic and new kraft-core shattered are also available in 6×6 mini paper pads too…

so there we have it bloggers. the final sneak peek for this show of the products i’ll be releasing at the cha show kicking off this saturday. be sure to follow me on instagram where i’ll be sharing all of the incredible booths and lots of inspiring project samples throughout the show. don’t forget you can also follow mario on twitter, facebook, and instagram for some of the BTS (behind the scenes) action at the show. well we’re off to the convention center to spend the day setting up the booths so look out cha-winter show 2013, here we come!…t!m

The best news from this posting: 6 x 6 kraft core’dinations pads!!! Since I have found that I like to work small, the 12 x 12 pads are too much for me — lots of leftovers (papers and pads) lying around! Between these and the small versions of your stamps I am so looking forward to the spring collections!

The shattered core’dinations are awesome and I’m so pleased they’re being released in 6×6 as this is a great size to travel with. Can’t wait to try them with my texture fades embossing folders. Hope you have a ball at the CHA and thanks for bringing us so many fabulous new products!
